Hi, i need urgently the informations if the dimensions of AM4 and AM5 r the same. I talk about the packagedimensions of Socket/LGA + CPU like the following picture. I hope someone has skills to tell me if its the same or someone could provide the right information. Thank u and best regards Marc Source: https://www.igorslab.de
The packaged processor dimensions are the same: 40x40mm. The heatsink mounting points are also the same, at 54x90mm. Z-height is identical, too. Can't seem to scare up any mechanical drawings on DuckDuckGo, though, so that's all I've got!
As far as I remember, everything is identical except you can't remove / replace the backplate. The EK waterblock I got can be mounted on AM5 with just some AM5-specific standoffs without replacing the backplate.
Coz, most of the waterblocks works without spacer, and uses some compression springs to balance the preasure of the mountingkit.
